3 Screen Solutions (3SS) and KAONMEDIA have announced that Nordic pay-TV giant Allente has launched its next-generation super-aggregated TV services for Scandinavia on an Android TV STB, supporting DTH satellite, IPTV and OTT.
KAON BCM72180 PVR STBs (set-top box) will be available to Allente’s 1 million+ subscribers, enabled by KAON middleware, NAGRA Media CAS, Broadcom 72180 SoC and based on 3SS UX (user experience) technology. The service will have a phased rollout throughout the Nordic region in 2022, starting with Sweden. PVR functionality will be rolled out later this year.
Jon Espen Nergård, Allente CTO, said: “We’re very excited to now offer our next-generation service to subscribers via satellite, IPTV and OTT streaming. We thank our amazing partners KAON and 3SS, and all our technology collaborators, in helping us provide our customers with a rich array of content, including their favorite apps, all wrapped in a world-class 3SS-enabled experience and delivered on KAON’s powerful STB.”
“We congratulate Allente for going live with its next-gen TV offering, which is bringing a truly advanced service, abundant with top entertainment, to viewers across the Nordic region,” commented Tom Buhl, KAONMEDIA Executive Vice President. “We look forward to continuing to support Allente, a true pioneer in our industry.”
“In making its super-aggregated service available to consumers in so many ways, Allente is yet again demonstrating its abiding commitment to providing a superior entertainment experience to all subscribers, on satellite, OTT and IPTV,” said Kai-Christian Borchers, Managing Director of 3SS. “Allente is at the vanguard of technological innovation and customer focus, and we are extremely proud of our long and ongoing partnership.”
